Hardcover. Condición: Very Good. No Jacket. 1st Edition. Ex-lib with many of the usual markings but the book is still tight, clean and completely intact. Gilt lettering on spine is still bright.

271pp., plus three maps, one chart, and one view (all but one folding). Modern calf, spine with raised bands, gilt morocco label. Light rubbing and shelf wear. Interior tanned, staining and foxing, occasional small marginal tears or paper flaws. Plates and maps loosely laid in to pocket at rear of volume. Contemporary and later ownership inscriptions of William Woodbridge and his daughter, Juliana Trumbull Woodbridge Backus (see below). About very good overall. First edition of one of the earliest separate historical accounts of Ohio, with Rufus Putnam's map, which is the first large folding map of the state of Ohio. One of the other maps shows the headwaters of the Ohio, and another shows plats of land that had been appropriated for military service (also featuring the Moravian Indian towns of Shoenbrun, Gnadenhutten, and Salem). This latter map is also attributed to Rufus Putnam, the surveyor general and the dedicatee of Harris' work. Also included is a plan of the town of Marietta and a bird's- eye view of the ancient works on the Muskingum. Harris' journey was undertaken by the author, on doctor's orders, as a cure for "wasting sickness." The cure seems to have worked, and the author lived until 1842, despite the fatalistic final lines of his introduction: ".to the hopes not of the present, but of the future life, I resign myself." The text is also notable for a particularly early discussion of the petroleum deposits near Pittsburgh. Thaddeus Harris (1768-1842) was a minister, librarian of Harvard University, and a founding member of the American Antiquarian Society. A contemporary ownership inscription on the titlepage notes this as William Woodbridge's copy, followed by his daughter's inscription dated 1862. Woodbridge was a Connecticut native who studied at the Litchfield Law School before relocating to Ohio in 1806. He served in the Ohio House and Senate between 1808 and 1814, at which point he moved again to Michigan Territory. After holding various positions in Michigan (including as a delegate to the Constitutional Convention of 1835 and a judge on the Supreme Court), he eventually became the second governor of Michigan after statehood, from 1840 to 1841. A very faded but still legible note at the end of the preliminaries reads: "Juliana T.W. Backus. This came to me in the division of my dear father's law library in 1862." An important early Ohio history, with notable provenance. HOWES H233, "aa." SABIN 30515. CLARK II:37. STREETER SALE 831. THOMSON 510. REESE, FEDERAL HUNDRED 99.
